Most of your rotations will take place on campus, allowing for a cohesive and integrated learning experience. Nestled amongst nearly 60 acres of trees and healing gardens, Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital offers a serene and welcoming atmosphere. This beautiful environment not only promotes healing for patients but also provides ample opportunities for residents to build camaraderie and foster relationships with peers.
